How to consume Indian - Samosa Chaat without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of Samosa Chaat you consume in one sitting to reduce the total carbohydrate intake.

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your meal with a side of leafy greens or a salad to help slow down the absorption of sugars. Foods like spinach, kale, or mixed greens are great options.

Add Protein and Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas, and healthy fats like avocado or nuts, which can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Choose Whole Grains

Opt for whole-grain options for the chaat components, such as whole wheat samosas or adding brown rice, to add more fiber and nutrients.

Incorporate Non-Starchy Vegetables

Add more non-starchy vegetables to your chaat, such as cucumber, tomatoes, and bell peppers, to increase volume and nutrients without significantly impacting blood sugar levels.

Moderate Use of Tamarind Sauce

Use tamarind sauce sparingly as it can be high in sugar, or opt for a homemade version using less sugar or a sugar substitute.

Hydrate Before Meals

Drink a glass of water before your meal to help you feel full and reduce the urge to overeat.

Slow Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to signal when you are full, which can help prevent overeating and large blood sugar spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in a short walk or light physical activity after meals to help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood glucose responses to different foods and adjust your diet accordingly, focusing on the foods and combinations that work best for your body.
